In case of Toys R Us, not keeping competitive was the result of decisions made by the proletariat. A large stake of Toys R Us is owned by Bain Capital. You know, Mitt Romney Bain Capital. Toys R Us CEO Dave Brandon is, at the very least, a multi-millionaire. So these are the people making the decisions for the company. When the decision is made to not invest more money and resources in to online, who is backing that choice? Who is benefiting from it? It's not working class Joe's, it's those at the top of the food chain cutting corners to maximize their gains. Best case scenario, they were too inept to know how to compete in the current market. Worst-case, they intentionally ran the business into the ground for their own short-term gains.

I may be moving to Knoxville for a retail job, so I certainly wouldn't mind moving to Maryland for a dream job lol

I appreciate the vote of confidence. It's true, I CAN do stuff. I'm a great cook, a decent writer, and a passionate customer service/sales manager. But if TRU going out of business is sending waves through DST as well, the last thing they may need is another mouth to feed LOL But hey, correct me if I'm wrong, Zach. If you need a combination CSR/chef/copy writer, you know where to find me

1) I'm the assistant manager at my Toys R Us and I want to thank the lot of you for being so much more considerate then the customers walking through our doors and calling our store asking "How long till the sales start?" as opposed to "How are you handling this?" Your compassion is truly appreciated. 2) That said, i shake my head at ANYONE who works for the company and didn't see it coming. For AT LEAST the past five years, the business had been run like it was going out of business. As AZ described of B&N, corners were being cut to insure maximum profit margin while maintaining bare minimum operating standards. 3) Big Lots, Ross, Marshals, and TJ Maxx are just a few retailers that still buy Warehouse stock. And, having purchased a box boldly emblazoned "Toys R Us exclusive" from KB Toy works when I still worked there, i can say with confidence most retailers won't care WHAT the package says, especially if the store it's referencing is long gone. 4) While I've already been seeking alternative employment because i felt this was inevitable, Zach, my heart goes out to the DST team as regards any hardships this brings to the company as a whole and the individuals who have made it what it is.

When. The website MAY stay active?

+1 for the Hood

Man... OZT... what a weird time for comics. Xavier is evil. Xavier's imprisoned. Xavier's missing. Xavier is back and Cerebro is evil and hunting him... Not to mention the lynchpin of OZT - the X-Men you WANT to read about crashed their Blackbird and now Scott has a bomb on his heart. Here's Marrow!

That's an easy solution. The last three slots are all Multiple Man

Jimmy Hudson is here, now, too.

I understood that reference.

NOT WITH ANY ATTITUDE!

What if DST could offer army builder cases? You have to have an initial order of the regular case, but it would open you up to order a certain quantity of Army Builder cases

I'd love to see an amazing friends Redux. A screen accurate Firestar with highlighted orange red hair and a separate unmasked Angelica Jones head with straight hair and a cheery Ice Man with ice slide, ice block, and Bobby Drake upper body. It's easy enough to find some legs to make him look normal, but his particular sweater vest combo has only ever been made in Zombie form. And, of course, Ms Lion pack in.

I can't speak for you, but I know where mine is

Speaking of Firestar, you know what could be an interesting wave? One where the troop builder is a female and male Hellion. Then you focus the wave around characters who were Hellions. So maybe the troop builders are Jetstream and Tarot with extra parts for Beef/Empath and Catseye/Roulette, but then you can ALSO use your parts from Warpath, Sunspot* and Firestar to make THEM as Hellions. Capullo Warpath/Capullo Sunspot Amazing Friends Firestar/AF Iceman Cable's clone, Stryfe/Capullo Feral Hellion 2-pack * I don't have a solution for matching skin tones on the Hellion body...

I'm not against getting that fire star, but I'll be sad if we get her before we get the proper Amazing Friends look

Zach, what are the chances of a newly tooled new style optic blast?

1) Nope. Just implying you're burying the lead 2) We just don't call it petrol. It sounds vaguely steampunkish lol

I used similar bulking on a suited sabertooth. I feel like it is a good way to portray certain characters. Hulk is bulky everywhere. Sabertooth or Venom don't need giant hands or feet, but more muscular upper arms and legs make sense

Also... petrol station LOL

Middle aged? Man? I think you misspelled sexy young stud muffin lol

But see, that's what I'm saying. I know it's a visor because I know it's a visor. But I don't ever recall seeing it depicted in any visor like way in the comics. It always just looked like a very plain masks. I feel like the lack of detail is intentional

But that's kind of the aesthetic of that costume

I saw the (I would say valid) criticism on Facebook that the stripe down rogue's chest is too narrow. A quick Google image search shows that the stripe is usually only this thin when there is also an X logo over it. Without the X logo, it is usually a much broader, bolder stripe.

It's funny you say no one knows what a balaclava is, because I was super excited to see you use the term
